3:02, I'll try to notate the time as best I can, this gets pretty strange.
Just count and two and three and, etc. Follow every note to its beat, it will work out.

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 1 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + back to start

Continue this up 3 frets, down 1 fret pattern until you end E flat. That's all.
I know this is a long one and listening to the track will definitely be needed, but all the riffs are here.
Enjoy!
